Chapter 53 – The Continent’s Situation


Translator: Erothur



The continent where Elvira’s home village located which named Barzelion continent was even bigger than Eribeiris continent.
Because the continent is crowded with many small kingdoms, there are kingdoms that assertively promote exchanges between kingdoms and on the other side, there are also kingdoms that have confrontation with the other kingdoms. And with the vast land the continent have, the space between kingdoms is large so the culture and custom of the resident become too diversified as the result.
There is a kingdom that owns a coastal line as its territory and this kingdom is very assertive with their exchanges with the other kingdoms which in turn made this kingdom a multicultural kingdom in its development. But on the other hand, there is also a kingdom that locks themselves out from the outside world and develops their own peculiar culture.
They have mountains, forests, and even ruins. This continent still has many place left unexplored so, not like the Eribeiris continent that developed under a stable culture, monster hunting and ruins excavating jobs are flourishing here. There’s even a commerce kingdom that flourished from being specialized in trading with those wanderer who made those two jobs as their main source of income
If Renya were to comment on this, he will just say that this continent is just as what he has in his imagination about a place chock-full with another world fantasy component.

But then again when there is too much diversity like this of course it will affects the public order and sanitation condition of the kingdoms.
Renya and his party pretty much had the power to face outlaw and criminals such as street ruffians, ex-mercenary hoodlums, or even bandit brigand and no matter how much they join together to attack, He still has the confident that he can wipe them all clean. But the scale is just over the top and they decide to play it safe as much as they can.
Luckily, although not assertively, there are dragons from the village that would go to the human settlement from time to time to trade things. And Renya managed to gather some information about the surrounding kingdoms from them. With that information at hand, Renya starts to ponder where he should go next.

First, Barzelion continent is mostly divided into 5 large kingdoms.
The first kingdom that Renya eliminates from the choice list is the Cedieren holy empire. It is already clear from the name that it was a religious kingdom. To add on, the regulation there is very strict. It was really a role model for a religious country where monks who do ascetic practices and priest gather together. And of course, there are no amusements institutions within it and with that, not much thrill can be experienced there.
Serve the god, work for the sake of god, and die for the god.
There are a lot other strict doctrines but to frankly sum it up, it has nothing to do with them.


(I don’t really want to be involved with this country)


The next eliminated from the list is the Rinthyeze kingdom.
The reason is because this kingdom base principle is that women had the higher standings in it from the men. Women are more dominant here.
If he, a random wanderer were to visit this kingdom with his four harems…


(Yeah, it definitely will cause some strange flag to rise)


It was a flowery culture for a kingdom but Renya won’t let himself to sleep in a bed full of thorns so he just decides not to visit this kingdom. From Anrietta’s investigation, he also knows that this kingdom doesn’t really make light of the men as what the usual women dominated kingdoms would do so he just don’t bother. He don’t go there definitely not because he is afraid of one of his close person. Yep, he really insists that.

Next into the elimination is the Ezemeria republic. And the reason for eliminating this country which has coastline within its territory from his to be visited list is because Renya don’t feel comfortable with this country’s culture.
The reason isn’t as simply as because this country wasn’t based on monarchy. But because this country was a country of mercenaries that was built by mercenaries and it has the most powerful mercenary group among the whole kingdoms as the supporting pillar for its national power. Of course, this country is also the main base of the mercenary guild and they have far stronger military power that any mediocre kingdom there is.
Hearing that much information would make people easily imagine how bloodstained dangerous this country is and might think that it was Renya’s reason to eliminate it but, Renya’s reason was actually very simple.
This country is just an assembly of hot headed man and muscle! They will only fight, fight, fight day after days and this country would surely be filled with bars and brothels as it was the main amusement place for those mercenaries.


(Who is sane enough to visit such country reeks of men’s sweat and muscle!?)


If he were to really visit this country, he might need a kiss from the girls each morning in order to keep his sanity. But rather than taking risk, it’s better to just left this country out from the start anyway.

And then there is another kingdom that is currently in conflict with Ezemeria republic. It was the Faskurn commercial kingdom.
As a commercial kingdom, of course it also has coastline as its territory. It made deals not only with the kingdoms inside the continent but also from the kingdoms outside the continent. This kingdom that can single-handedly deals with such a massive amount of goods circulation really has the ability to deal with money. But on the reverse side, if you go there and carelessly shown your vulnerable point, then this den of thieves would definitely not give any damn when they leave you naked in the sideways without any possession left. And that is still a better end.
Still this is also a kingdom where if you can show your resourcefulness and mass a big fortune, then no matter who you are, even if you are born commoner, you can rise your position in the kingdom and get political power. Yes, this is the famous upstart riche kingdom after all.
Because of the kingdom custom, there seems to be no end for money associated trouble in here. Also, merchant and mercenary have an inseparable relationship between them so troubles around the two would relatively easy to erupt.


(It’s not that bad but, I don’t want to stay there for too long definitely)


Because of that from the process of elimination, there’s only one kingdom left in the list. This kingdom, Tosminia kingdom, located in the center of the continent and also called as the kingdom where wanderer assembles. This kingdom is unique not only because it lets other kingdom trades freely in their area but also because most of the kingdom’s territory are still untouched by the hands of mankind. Because of that, there are many unique and rare magic beast, ruins and dungeon that are yet to be discovered, precious material from untrodden place, and so on. Many wanderers that dream of getting rich quick would definitely visit and with their activity, the kingdom will flourish in exchange.
It was actually a small kingdom at start but in this few decades it successfully expands its territory and possess high enough national power that made other big power treat it as their equal. Why can they grow so quickly like this? It was because they assign people base on their ability without regard to their race and origins. The kingdom also does research on weapon making from any new material that is found within the country and made many rare armaments in the process which in the end made their commerce flourish even more. With those two positive facts, people will naturally gather and of course rare talented people are also included. With the quick addition to population and talent, the kingdom rapidly developed.
The kingdom successfully connects all the good weapon they have in their policy and it gives a positive result. And the main reason they managed to flourish like this is because of the wanderer.
Tosminia is ridiculed being just another upstart riche kingdom like the Faskurn but both kingdom has people who managed to snatch the top position in the kingdom with their own ability so generally speaking, their negotiation skill is absolutely strong. Both kingdom shows that upstart riche are not to be trifled with. This kingdom is the assembly point for wealth and novelty in this continent.


(This kingdom really is the one that attracts me the most)


It seems like almost all adventure component in this continent is chock-full in this kingdom only.
Because of that reasoning, Renya instructs Anrietta to do a careful investigation to Tosminia Kingdom and its surroundings. And just in case, he also instructs to investigate the other kingdoms too for anything that couldn’t possibly be found by any normal human but to actually do something about the result would be a secondary matter for now.
That is how much Renya feel attracted to Tosminia right now.
For the time being, he had collected enough information for now and goes out from the bridge to go to a certain place inside the ship.


 ◇


Until they decided on their next course of action, the party will stay for a while in Elvira’s house. But of course, they don’t want to just freeload there while they stay there.
Fortunately, in this mountainous region far from human eyes, there are many magic beasts and monsters that inhabit the place. Renya and his party start their hunt to wipe out these potential threats to the village from around the surroundings of the village. Well, it was the village of the dragons so there should be no beast stupid enough to approach the village so strictly speaking, this hunt is for preventing the beast from getting intimidated by the dragons intimidating aura which will made them run to the foot of the mountain where the human settlement is.

Usually, after a party of hunter finished hunting a number of game, they will stop to carve up any useful parts of the game and throw out the rest but, Renya’s party is not your usual hunting party after all.
From Anrietta work result, one of Hlidskjalf function expansion program that Renya instructed before, the [plant], is now finished and can be utilized immediately.
This [plant] is a manufacture workshop which is added to the ship function and is located right underneath the mansion inside the ship.
In the [plant] all kinds of materials and ingredient will be processed into a desired state. Not only that, it can also butcher up magic beast and monster to carve up their useful parts in a technique that can even makes a pro feel ashamed.
On top of it, the [plant] outer appearance is only a single conveyor belt where raw materials are placed before getting processed. After entering the [plant], the material will be detected by scanner like machine to choose an appropriate method to process it and the next thing that can be seen is that after getting out from the [plant], the raw material from before had been magically processed and will only have the usable parts left. The conveyor belt will then automatically bring the final result to the storage room.
The unused parts will then be processed to be one of Hlidskjalf main source of power. There is splendidly no waste left.


“UWAA! UWAA! AMAZING! AMAZING DESU! To think that mountain of material would be processed in just a flash like that!”


Therese with her mecha fetish of course made a big racket from witnessing such an over technology plant to operates in front of her own eyes. By the way, this function was directly under Anrietta’s control. She will decide which things will be processed so if somehow a careless person or another living being somehow managed to enter the plant, it will be rejected immediately and thrown out forcefully.
Thankfully, there would definitely no horror thriller happening like that Soylent something…… or that something Geass (Eros: Do Code Geass has things like this? Haven’t watched) that might cause deep trauma to people.
But inversely, beasts that need to be butchered will need to be thoroughly killed in order to avoid malfunction.


[Master, the expansion work for adding the plant had been finished. What do you wish to expand next?]
“Hmm, I want to discuss that with you Anri. Can you expand the function to simulate natural hot spring inside a bath house? I want to experience many kinds of natural hot springs from many places in the world…… is that possible?”
[I will do an investigation to find out whether Master’s wish can be implemented or not]


After waiting for a while.


[Investigation completes. According to the word from the Master’s old world, a [hot spring spa] could be implemented. We can expand the main bath house to create that]
“Alright! Good job Anri! You are such a good girl!”


Renya spontaneously do a guts pose to express his delight but Anri suddenly materialized in front of him. Renya was surprised by the sudden happening and doesn’t understand what Anri going to do. He just notices that Anri gives out a strange expression gazing at him while slightly lowering her head.
Renya recognizes this pose. Anri is doing an upward glance like she was expecting something from him. Did she do it without any reason? No, she really seems to be expecting something. Renya definitely could feel that but he just couldn’t guess what Anri expected from him so he could just stay silent and wait for her next word.


[It was an honor to receive praise from you Master. Well then I know I might be presumptuous but could I also receive a reward? As for what kind of reward, I want to get my head patted by master for a while]
“Are you okay with only that? Okay, leave it to me! I am kind to cute girl like you”


For a guy to say those kinds of words towards someone who looks like an 8 years old cute little girl while patting her head…
It was truly like one criminal scene. If the little girl didn’t shows up, although barely, a happy expression in her face then the guardsman would already coming in to apprehend him. Someone call the guardsman! Quick!


[Fuu…… being able to directly touch master like this while channeling divine power really gives me a good feeling. I am getting addicted to it. If it already feels this good with only a casual skinship, I probably need to demand an even passionate kind of skinship in the future]
“Okay, come back!? Definitely never be like that ok!?”
[Oh my, I thought Master prefer to having physical contacts with women. Am I mistaken?]
“Even if I do like it, I also know the limit. Especially in Anri’s case, it will definitely spell trouble”
[Do master doesn’t feel the joy from staining a pure and innocent little girl?]
“Why did you ask such defaming question!? How did you see me as anyway!?”
[It was just a joke Master. Master really reacts comically when teased. It is funny]
“You really are… even after all said and done, didn’t you really resemble your [parents] after all?”
[That’s rude. Even if it was Master, I will never accept that statement. Please revoke it back]
“Even if you say so…… Anri lately use many teasing remarks to other, especially to me, more often than before… So there’s no denyi-”
[If you don’t revoke it back then shall I make use of the opening in the morning to snuggle in Master’s bed? While naked?]
“Yup! That was all my fault! Yes sir! Anri is really a wonderful daughter! Even if she resembles her parent, she is still not similar at all!” (Eros: I tried :3 )


Well, Floria and the other girls probably won’t blame him for that but that conduct might create a crack in their relationship and he definitely don’t want to hurt or receive scorn from the girls. Because of that, he immediately revokes his word just now.


[If you understand that then good. Then, to show my thanks, I will give Master the rights to sleep together with me. Naked.]
“Whatever I do you will still going to tease me after all!? You schemer little vixen!”
[Master really is a funny person]
“I’m not happy! That compliment doesn’t make me feel happy at all!”


Even with such dialogue between them, Renya secretly feels happy knowing Anri’s change.
This girl who used to deny her own existence had suddenly turned into a troublesome little vixen like this is really unexpected but even so, she is enjoying her life now.
How can Renya not feel happy from that?


[Well then Master, let’s go back to topic. It is possible to expand the bath house to simulates any natural hot spring but to reproduce it, a sample is needed]
“Ah, as expected I can’t just ask you to create something from nothing right? Well for now let’s just take the sample from the hot spring in Elvira’s village. How much sample do you need?”
[1 small bottle would be enough]
“Got that. Then I will go and get the sample so please work on it. And by the way, could you make the expansion by increase the number of bath tub every time we gather more sample?”
[Yes Master. I will set the program to automatically adds another bath tub every time Master adds another sample]
“Alright. With this, the plan to collect all the secret springs and famous springs around the world within Hlidskjalf can be officially started”


Renya laments that he can’t make the bath house an open air bath one because it was on a ship. But still, it is also a fact that Renya had found another fun things to do.


[Well then Master, I ask again, what do you wish to expand from Hlidskjalf next?]
“Hmm let see…… Now that it is possible to procure raw materials then I want to have a [workshop] build next. I want to do maintenance to my divine armaments and do some other things too. And I also wish to build a good environment to support Therese’s tinkering habit”
“Affirmative. Then I will made the preparation to set the work to release the lock that will enable Hlidskjalf to build the [workshop] expansion on auto”
“It's all up to you okay? After all, it was thanks to you that I can operate Hlidskjalf well like this”
“I will exhaust my abilities to answer Master’s wholehearted confidence”


Like this, Renya is preparation for his next adventure is advancing without a hitch.



Author notes: The reason why I put this dragon village arc before entering the new continent is because, and only because the onsen (hot spring) factor only.
Skinship in the bath place is really indispensable!

And then the weird thing is, why did Anri who were pure and innocent at start turned out to be like this? Is it after all because she resemble (the author has been forcefully logged out)


Eros notes: Chino (Gochiusa) at first, then she just grew devil horn, tail, and wings after lol

Also, Enjoy my translation? Then please offer sacrifices for the church of Renya

  7. or that something Geass (Eros: Do Code Geass has things like this? Haven’t watched) that might cause deep trauma to people

    regarding your question eros.
    Code geass does not have those kind of things it mainly focus on something like counter-terrorism, its a very filler story somewhat and a good to watch anime along side guilty crown.

    And thanks for the update! 👍😊✌
